Silky Maple Pumpkin Pudding Cups

An ultra-creamy, no-cook pumpkin pudding sweetened with maple syrup and warmed with cinnamon. Layered parfait-style with crunchy toasted pecans and coconut whip, it is a decadent yet wholesome fall treat.

Preparation:  30 mins
Servings:  4

Instructions

Step 1: Soak the cashews

Cover the raw cashews with boiling water for 1 hour (fast method) or cool water for 4–6 hours, then drain and rinse well.

Step 2: Blend the cashew

In a high-speed blender, combine the pumpkin puree, soaked cashews, full-fat coconut milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract and sea salt. Blend on high until completely smooth and silky, about 1 minute.

Step 3: Chill to set

Transfer the pudding mixture to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for 4–6 hours (or overnight) until thick and set.

Step 4: Toast the pecans

Warm a skillet over medium heat. Add pecans and toast, stirring, 3–4 minutes until fragrant. Cool, then crush lightly.

Step 5: Assemble the parfaits

Divide the toasted, crushed pecans among 4 small glasses. Spoon in the chilled pumpkin pudding and finish with a dollop of coconut whipped cream.
